The New York Times and the Washington Post are chock full of "conservative" columnists who reflect the lack of political diversity in their newsrooms by being united in their opposition to Donald Trump. However, of all these "conservatives," there is one with the saving grace of at least being comically entertaining in that he consistently provides hilariously wrong predictions about Trump. He is Ross Douthat who is sort of a monastic Mini-Me version of his Times colleague David Brooks.
So just how wrong are Douthat's predictions? Let's just say they are in the category of Bob Shrum "Curse" wrong. And the funniest thing about Douthat is that no matter how many times he seems to swear off making predictions that make him look foolish...he always returns to make yet more foolish predictions. He just can't help himself.

Ross, hilariously, also looks a little like Billy Crystal.
That was very funny. His lack of insight is pretty amazing.
Trump was right to remark that it’s amazing that not a single media pundit lost his or her job despite being completely and consistently wrong.
Obviously, him making a fool of himself constantly is the reason they keep him.
His last name looks like a misspelling of “Doubt that”. Is that his real name or is the similarity intentional.
Hey, Ross. Do me a favor and predict that I’ll never win the lottery.
Between him and Hugh Hewitt, it’s hard to say who is worse...
They are both propagandists for the Cheap Labor Express
About as accurate as the global warming predictions-the next one that comes true will be the first one to come true.
Douthat, of crunchy-con fame?
No, that Rod Dreher..
NYT would call Lenin an “extreme right wing radical conservative” in today’s climate. Stalin would be “mainstream moderate democrat.”
